Worth the wait
I am in total agreement with the above review and hopefully will be a real summer hit.
The track order is spot on - mixing those more well known tracks (So Good Today, Closer) with some nice instrumentals (Bright Future, Beauty). I was sceptical at first having seen his myspace site listing his influences as jungle and drum and bass (not being one of my major tastes). Nevertheless, this album seems to tone those elements down with the addition of some jazzy loops which compliment each other well.
Hopefully the start of something big..
Definately one of the best albums of the year so far. If you like this get the new 4hero album aswell.
Best album I've heard for a long long time
I didn't have high expectations for this album, it was more of an impulse buy. But the tracks I'd heard through his myspace site, and Gilles Peterson pulled me in. This man is a true British talent, and should rightfully be at the top of the charts. He mixes soul, jazz, r'n'b, drum and bass into a fine album. 'Welcome' is melancholy and moody, and beautiful, there are too many tracks here that are just plain danceable plus some really nice instrumentals. The truly rare thing about this album is there is no fillers, I don't skip any tracks! If you are a regular fan of Gilles, Jazzanova, or just music, full stop. Take a risk.
The Summer Begins...
Finally arrived today, I've been looking forward to this since first hearing 'So Good Today' on Gilles Peterson's show last year. I've been playing the Yoruba dub of that out for a while but that's not really the focus of this album.
If you like Nightmares on Wax, Zero 7, Alice Russell, in fact anything on Tru Thoughts or Fat City then get this album because it really is superb. I expect this will be on repeat during the Summer months and a must for the late night BBQ's.
Thanks Ben, thanks Die, thanks Brownswood, best album of the year so far.
